ActorDoT Progress

Things are coming along well! I have to manually adjust skins and animations for each supported heroine, but now they can fit each specific skin!

Upsides:

• It looks fucking awesome.

• It works on modded classes that are supported by LL:E too!

Downsides:

• Each heroine can only have one ...

The Workshop is like 75% done

And then once it's entirely implemented in-game the colossal job of creating, mixing, and implementing audio for every enemy, attack, curio, corridor, quest, trap, hero, skill, and BGM begins.

I remember when I was just the sound gal for the original LL. Time for a return to the past =_=

Wish me luck.

Wanna see what might be changing in 1.9?

Hey lovelies!

I don't usually share my design documents, I prefer to keep them to myself, but I thought it might be nice for y'all to see what changes I'm planning in 1.9 after listening to your feedback.

Yes, this is the level of planning I put into pretty much everything I do in LL:E 🙂 It's how I feel the best things are create...

Anyone else experiencing this issue? (1.73)

I've had a couple of reports of impassable, invisible obstacle rubble in the workshop. This is strange because this is an issue I personally experienced while testing and fixed already before finalising 1.73.

Did I just fuck something up when packing the files together, maybe?

Anyone else getting this in 1.73?

Kindly,
Ances...

Experimenting with ActorDots

With the power of ActorDots we get to create some very fun new effects, like above!

Here's my question though: Should the hands grabbing breasts be kept as generic as possible to suit as many skins as possible, or should they be made bespoke for each heroine? (which is entirely possible)

Oh. New enemy preview, by the way. 2025-11-19 12:24:06 +0000 UTC View Post

Making a hitlist for 1.9 a.k.a 'Which parts of LL / LLE suck?'

As you all know, after 1.8 is finished the 1.9 update is going to focus on improving the state of the mod overall.

You can help me!

I need to make one big list of every little thing we don't like in LL / LLE.

Bad art? Bad animations? A long-ignored bug? A piece of writing that seems weird or off or incorrect? Something thats mi...

More Workshop curios

More fun interactibles, with art and animation by DonGorbleone!

What's 1.9 going to be about?

1.8 is all about The Workshop region, and adding new content to LL:E, but what about that 1.9 update I teased before?

It's going to be all about generally raising the quality of the mod's art, animation, and writing.

Here's an example of the sort of changes that will be coming after 1.8 in the 1.9 Quality Up...

Not able to unlock the The Workshop?

Just remember that unlocking the workshop is triggered by a town event! So here's a checklist to make sure you've:

• Beaten the tutorial quest (Not the old road, but the first Ruins quest).

• Beaten the first Crimson Court quest if you have it enabled (If you don't you will constantly get 'The Town is Abuzz!' town event ...

Lustiest Lair: Expanded - 2026 Roadmap

With the Workshop update well on its way to being complete, I thought I'd like to share my early thoughts on what 2026 might look like.

Nothing is set properly in stone, but I know that after I've finished with the Workshop I'd like to spend a lot more time going back through the original Lustiest Lair's content and compl...

A call for artists!

As you all know, this Patreon exists to make LL:E happen. I use this money to pay experienced and amazing artists and animators, consults on code and modding, and occasionally put out a bounty on a troublesome bug. So:

Are you an artist that produces quality work? Do you believe that you can replicate something similar to Darkest D...
